THE President, Board of Directors, Management and Staff of the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) regret the passing of the former Prime Minister of Trinidad and Tobago, Patrick Manning.

The Board would like to remember the former Prime Minister as someone who supported the cricket product.
As Prime Minister he was integral to the region’s hosting of Cricket World Cup 2007 and even after the event, encouraged the region to carefully focus on the legacy and its value to the people of the Caribbean.
The WICB would therefore like to offer its sincere condolences to his immediate family, friends and the people of Trinidad and Tobago. May his soul rest in eternal peace.
